Product Architect

Data Nexus is looking for a Product Architect to work inside the company, shaping and evolving complex SaaS, transactional platforms, and data-driven systems.

This is not a UI role and not a classic product manager position.

You will operate at the intersection of:

• product architecture

• system logic

• UX structure

• data and business constraints

Your responsibility is to design products as systems, not as collections of features or screens.

Key Responsibilty

• Design end-to-end product architecture for complex SaaS platforms

• Translate business requirements into coherent system models (flows, states, entities)

• Define core transaction models, invariants, and interaction logic

• Work with designers to ensure state-driven UX, not screen-driven layouts

• Collaborate with engineering on:

  
  

  • system decomposition

  • scalability decisions

  • data flow and persistence logic

  
  

• Identify and reduce product and architectural complexity

• Audit existing products and platforms:

  
  

  • detect structural weaknesses

  • propose architectural refactors

  
  

• Support crisis and recovery scenarios (data loss, legacy systems, scale issues)

• Participate in strategic decisions:

  
  

  • platform vs product

  • build vs refactor

  • MVP vs system investment

  
  

• Strong experience designing complex digital products (SaaS, platforms, marketplaces)

• Ability to think in:

  
  

  • systems

  • states

  • flows

  • constraints

  
  

• Deep understanding of product architecture, not only UX or PM practices

• Experience working with:

  
  

  • engineers

  • designers

  • data / analytics teams

  
  

• Ability to decompose complexity and rebuild clarity

• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and high-stakes scenarios

• Clear written and verbal communication (English required)

• 5+ years working on complex digital products

• Direct involvement in at least one of the following:

  
  

  • large-scale SaaS

  • transactional platforms

  • data-heavy systems

  • system rebuilds or migrations

  
  

• Experience with:

  
  

  • product discovery under constraints

  • scaling products beyond MVP

  • refactoring legacy or overgrown systems

Desired / Nice-to-Have Experience

• Background in:

  
  

  • system design

  • engineering

  • data architecture

  
  

• Experience with:

  
  

  • e-commerce or fintech platforms

  • pricing, payments, or transactional logic

  • analytics-driven product decisions

  
  

• Exposure to MENA / UAE digital markets

• Experience working with Telegram WebApps or constrained environments

• Ability to articulate product decisions to founders and executives
